Aggies need to accept that Tech has better football program

Finally, someone needed to say it. Nice post from Tim MacMahon on The Dallas Morning News College Sports blog. So, I'm not the only one sick of the Aggies delusional arguments that they are still a top tier program. Nothing gets me geared up for the college football season like a good Aggie bashing!

 

Aggies need to accept that Tech has better football program 

I've read all the bickering between Aggies and Red Raiders on this here blog over the last few days. I tried to stay out of it, but it's clear that an unbiased party needs to talk some sense into those silly Aggies.

Texas Tech has a better football program than Texas A&M at this point. The Aggies have a huge advantage in the history department, but there's no possible way to argue that A&M has been better than Tech since Mike Leach arrived in Lubbock.

Tech has won six of eight meetings between the rivals -- and, yes, the Red Raiders are rivals of the Aggies -- with Leach on the sideline. That includes the last three. Let's face it: Pirates beat soliders most of the time these days.

Leach is 65-37 with eight consecutive bowl appearances. The Aggies are 53-45 with five bowl appearances during that span. Those numbers are pretty convincingly in Tech's favor, don't you reckon?

Aggies, stop slamming the Red Raiders and start hoping that Mike Sherman can get A&M's program back to Tech's level.

Zing! Always great to have an outside point of view slam the Aggies. Even a Jayhawk fan logged on and put in his two cents on an entry a couple days ago.

After all is said and done, more is said than done.

Yeah

It was pretty absurd what some Aggie fans were saying about Tech in general and football specifically. But that is almost to be expected. My Aggie buddy was laughing along with me at how juvenile people sounded. Those blogs bring out the inner moron in people – and a few Tech fans didn’t look too sharp either. Digital media has its drawbacks : )
